YES BUT NO
Since I have more to say about this drama I will be going with my usual review format.
However since I tend to ramble in my reviews, here is my recommendation for people
just skimming through it :
If you are looking for some cute romance, witty stories and some good laughs then I would say go for it. Its also on netflix, which is a huge plus as no subtitle problem.
However if you are expecting some heart wrenching sibling moments and some quality sibling bonding, yeah then maybe lower those expectations down to like 0.5.
OK now to the positives
1. The characters
Most characters are well developed and even the ones that are not ( as the just appear in like 2/3 episodes) are all
understandable in the actions and well acted.
Let me talk some more about the brothers.
I liked that it showed in their different attitudes in how differently they were raised. But the more free especially one
of the became, it showed that their true characters were quite similar.
Also both girls are different, cute and nice. They also aren't really playing a lot of stereotypes so that is definitely helpful.
2. The romantic interests of the brothers
OK what I really liked about this, is that it was a much more realistic approach to a love triangle ( which I ususally really hate ). In this the girl likes one brother and he also seems intersted. But as the plot goes she spends much more time with the other brother and he falls for her as well.
Later on her feelings slowly change and she starts to fall for the brother she spends time with.
When this is revealed to there other brother, he doesn't throw a fit or wants to seek revenge.
Instead he is understanding and he just shows how mature they both are.
3. The story
Ok here we have some positives to say. It was a fun storyline, with a lot of twists and turns.
It however never dwelled too long on anything and moved at a great pace.
The brothers both have their own struggles and their own mysteries to unveil.
And both grew in character, got to know more people.
Also the whole brothers want to kill each other, was more like to over story which loomed over everything.
It wasn't the focus all the time though, which was great since it could have gotten really boring otherwise.
The small storylines are usually witty and interesting.
Some are a bit overdramatic ( like the wedding couple killing themselves ) but one can't get everything right.
4. The setting was also cool and creative. Super pretty.
Now to the negatives:
1. The romance and how is was portrayed
Ok now one might be confused, since I mentioned romance as a postive before.
The romantic interests for the brother are quite realistic and fun. However the rest of the romance portrayed is very cliche and weird.
Lets talk about our main villains the two sisters. Both in love with the same dude. One gives up like 10 year od her cultivation to save him and then kind of expects him to marry er out of gratitude.
He doesn't, he then runs away with the servant, gets her pregnant and so the sister then both want revenge.
I mean I get it the dude didnt want her, but to use that as a reason for driving both of them to death and still not being satisfied and then having both brothers kill each other, is just a bit too far.
In my language we would say, her reasoning is on thin ice.
Also she then kills her only sister to fulfill this goal of a revenge on a dead men !!! I mean girl.
I though ok she just seems insane, but everyone kind of expected it as logical.
This however isn't the only time such a weird romance plot is used.
It is literally used again with the same women just that she now rejected a dude and cut off his legs ( LIKE JUST WHY ? )
so he decides to also go completely insane, raise a kid ( just because it looks like her as a daughter ) and take revenge on her also like 13 years later.
Like come on.... this is just a weird plot device and it kind of just comes out of left flied.
It also made the villain kind of meh. Like I get it she is evil, but either give her a better reason or just make her evil to the bone. But dont give me such a whimsical reason to justify her crimes.
Their was some side couple romances some really cool but also a but shallowly done. The whole amnesia tool was used which is just not my fav.
2. the parents
Ok so let me get this straight. The parents of these two boys. One is a material arts expert and the other is a servant.
However he can't defeat these 12 people that the villain can defeat in one move. Even though they are from the same school and were supposedly both amazing material artist.
But Ill just take that.
Then they get caught by the two women.
The one sister ( who hadn't spend as much time with the dude ) also makes a love confession to him in front of his wife and two kids. Like who is he, sexiest man alive at the time or something.
The mother of the kids sees no other way to save her husband and children than kill herself to satisfy the desire for revenge of the villains. OK i get it, makes sense. She even does this heart breaking goodbye and touches her kinds hand.
She begs him to beg the villains to spare the kids and him.
And what does this man do, kills himself as well without even spending a second thought on his kids and leaving them exposed. His suicide was so selfish, because he only did it to be with his wife and he didnt care about the kids he was supposed to take care of.
I would have been fine of he put up a fight or stroke a deal. His death and his kids go unharmed. But he doesn't neither.
He also doesn't say goodbye to his kids like his wife did.
I dont know. I really didnt like how they handled his death.
3. plot convenience
This is only a small point. But its like oh no I am stuck in this difficult situation but luckily I just met a man with the exact skill set that would get me out.
4. NOW THE BROTHERHOOD
This is the reason I am not the biggest fan of the drama. I watched this to see some really cute twin bonding and brothers taking on the world.
But they spent most of their time apart and even though they become friends. They never really take on an adventure together. They really skipped on this on.
so when is finals revealed that they are brother they hug and that kind of it.
Even when one thinks he killed his brother, the is no emotional breakdown.
so that was kind of the biggest letdown of the series.
I really wished we had gotten brothers take on the villain together. but that wasn't there case.
All in all good drama but the main point the brotherhood was a complete miss. I won't be rewatching it, but i think if one goes in not expecting a big brotherhood then it will be a great drama.
However since I tend to ramble in my reviews, here is my recommendation for people
